Both are rugged handheld data collectors used in GPS surveying, construction layout, and geospatial field work. Voltage and capacity match the original specification exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJuniper Mesa Field and Topcon Tesla compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both instruments share the same 7.4V battery rail, identical connector pinout, and the same BMS handshake protocol — which is why a single pack covers both platforms. Swapping between the two requires no adapters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack through power-up, GPS lock acquisition, and sustained data-logging cycles on the Mesa Field. The BMS held stable under the combined sensor and radio draw without triggering an early cutoff.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-deployment calibration step:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing this pack, run a full calibration cycle through the instrument's system menu before heading to site. The Mesa Field maps battery state during that cycle — skipping it causes the low-battery warning to fire well before the pack is actually depleted on the first session out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBMS cutoff when the Mesa Field initialises its GPS and radio modules at startup\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eAt power-on, the Mesa Field simultaneously brings up the GPS receiver, cellular or Bluetooth radio, and display backlight. That simultaneous draw can spike high enough to trigger a conservative BMS cutoff on a pack that is not fully charged. This is not a faulty pack — it is the BMS protecting cells that are below the threshold needed to handle the startup surge. Charge the battery to full before the first power-on, and the spike stays within the BMS window. A pack that will not start the instrument below 7.2V needs a full charge cycle before it will clear this threshold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003ePack will not charge after the instrument sat unused in a carry case for months\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eLi-ion cells that self-discharge below roughly 2.5V per cell enter a protection state where most standard chargers will not initiate a charge cycle. The BMS reads the pack as a fault rather than a depleted battery. Connect the instrument to the OEM charger and leave it for at least 30–40 minutes without interruption — some chargers trickle-charge at a low current first to bring cells back above 3.0V per cell before switching to normal charge rate. If the charger still shows no activity after 45 minutes, the cells have dropped below recoverable voltage and the pack needs replacement. A healthy recovered pack will register at least 7.0V on a multimeter before the charger switches to full current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360666026074,"sku":"BWCS-SDC117SL-1","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360666058842,"sku":"BWCS-SDC117SL-2","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360666091610,"sku":"BWCS-SDC117SL-3","price":52.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-SDC117SL-1.webp?v=1778616177","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/sokkia-juniper-mesa-field-replacement-battery-74v-2600mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
